| Other Information: | NPPD Toastmasters Club has been in existence since 1978. The Toastmasters program is not a graded course in public speaking. Learning takes place at club meetings where you study and practice communication and leadership skills with others who are there for the same reason as you. While Toastmasters is an international organization, club members are not professional speakers. They are people who want to improve their self-confidence when speaking with or in front of others. During club meetings, you will build 'quick thinking' skills as you give one- to two-minute speeches on table topics. You'll introduce speakers, conduct meetings, and perform other roles that will give you plenty of practice in a variety of communication experiences. But your greatest learning will come from preparing and presenting speeches based upon various manuals. Dues are $29, paid twice a year, and enrollment is easy. Call Bernard Anderson, vice president of membership, at 402-563-5281 or blander@nppd.com. |
